FILE - In this Sept. 14, 2016, file photo, former President Bill Clinton speaks while campaigning for his wife, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in North Las Vegas, Nev. Ignoring his own sexually aggressive predilections, Donald Trump wants voters to see Bill Clinton as a scandal-plagued cad whose history with women should disqualify Hillary Clinton from the presidency. The argument doesn’t seem to resonate with America’s youngest voters, who know the 70-year-old former president as a figure out of history books and don’t seem to care about his Oval Office affair with Monica Lewinsky or other marital infidelities.

I remember when Bill Clinton was president the Republicans talked about the importance of character in the Oval Office. With their party’s nomination and subsequent election of Donald Trump, knowing full well his lack of any moral character and having it on full display recently, I never want to hear Republicans talk about character again. They have lost any authority to do so.
